Description

No assembly required with the offered 1910 T218 Hassan/Mecca Champions complete set of (153) cards! Mainly sought after for its considerable contingent of (62) boxing cards, this antique multi-sport series also includes track stars, swimmers, divers, aviators, bowlers, golfers, skaters and billiards masters. The overall condition breakdown for this 115-year-old amateur series is as follows: 20% (VG or better), 45% (GD) and 35% (FR or lesser) with nearly 15% displaying paper loss/residue, stamps, tape and/or writing. Keys include: Attell (GD), Hoppe (GD, Action), Hoppe (PR, Portrait), Jeannette (GD), Jeffries (GD, Arms Folded), Jeffries (FR, Side View, reverse stamp), Ja. Johnson (PR, Facing Front, reverse pen), Ja. Johnson (FR, Side View) and Ketchell (GD). With all the legwork done and a more than reasonable starting point, this set seems an easy call.
